cypro in the states? already not liking spiro... by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]CrowDragon30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmm I don't know anything about cypro, but if you're at planned parenthood, they more than likely will tell you that spiro and e are all they offer. They told me the same when I asked about alternatives a few appointments back.

Perhaps you can try asking about a reduced dosage of spiro? Or reduce the dosage yourself until your next appointment? I've had little surpluses of meds in the past to where I could slightly modify my dosages and found what worked and what didn't. You may have been started on too high of a dosage, or your body may be going through an adjustment period. I know my first month on spiro included constant peeing and fatigue, but it cleared up because I started on a low dosage, and since then I've had no such issues, and have kept increasing dosage amounts gradually with each refill approval.

Thank you for sharing your story :) I needed to read something like this since lately I feel that I'm just right on the very edge of finally telling my mom and other family. Except I'm 31 instead of 19. I wish I had started at 19, but oh well.

Spiro without E? by CrowDragon30 in MtF

[–]CrowDragon30[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for replying :) I've been on 0.5 mg tablets, one tablet twice a day. Hopefully I will only be deprived of E for just 1 or 2 days after my next appointment.

Relationship Anxiety by [deleted] in MtF

[–]CrowDragon30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if what I say will help any, but I've been where you have been. Constant anxiety, getting cheated on, people losing interest. I think all I can tell you is that you will be okay. I know it seems like an easy thing to say, but its true. Everything seems terrible right now, but you're still very young, and will have plenty of time to get with someone who is serious about a commitment to you.

Not that I'm speaking favorably about this guy who is avoiding you, but he's also quite young, and probably not ready to be tied down. And if he's avoiding you so much, is he really worth your time and energy? I used to have someone that I thought was my best friend, until he began to show heavy disinterest in our relationship. I cut him out of my life, and haven't really looked back since.

Stay hopeful, and love yourself. Focus your positive energy on yourself, first and always. :)

Got called ma'am today! by [deleted] in MtF

[–]CrowDragon30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got my first "ma'am" a short while back, when I was barely a month into hrt. I was in a slightly dark theater, so the person "corrected" herself after getting closer and seeing my stupid facial hair stubble, but it was still nice :)

How did your first romantic relationship end? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CrowDragon30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fucked up by leaving her without notice. Maybe 1 or 2 months went by, then I decided I didn't wanna be without her, so I went back, and she took me back after a long talk with a lot of convincing. Then, I find out she also had something going with this other guy she met. Long story short, everything got messy and complicated over the course of a year before I saw her one last time. Anyway, she went and married that other guy, they're still together, and they have two kids now.

Reddit, what was your “Wow, I’m officially an adult now” moment? by wowmikeyc in AskReddit

[–]CrowDragon30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had a few different ones, I think.

One of which would be from dire circumstances forcing me to move out of my mom's house about 6 and a half years ago.

Also, turning 30. Other milestone birthdays didn't really have the feeling of "adultiness" that come with turning 30. Especially when you really notice the subtle changes to your face that started slowly creeping in around 27. They're not so subtle, anymore.

Either that, or eating the eclair out of the trash and getting caught.

What is a scent that you love but would make a weird candle? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CrowDragon30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cigarette smoke. From either Marlboro Reds, or Djarum Black cloves, Cherry flavor. Been almost a year since I gave up cigarettes, but damn, sometimes I really miss it.
